My Magazine Recipe Archives

For years and years I have collected and compulsively cut out magazine recipes that I delusionally believe I will one day make. I figured since it may never happen, I owe it to myself, and to my fictional readership, to share them and free them from my filing cabinet. Please leave comments on anything that you try!
